(1976)The energy flux terms in the surface heat balance equation were computed using parameterizations and mean monthly temperature, precipitation, planetary albedo, cloudiness, and vapor pressure data for 85 very dry locations. ...
-
(2015-06-24)Severe concrete cracking and ensuing deterioration caused by ASR/DEF expansion strains in bridge piers is a major concern for state transportation officials. A dual experimental and analytical modeling approach is used to ...
-
Experimental Performance of an Open Ends Squeeze Film Damper and a Sealed Ends Squeeze Film Damper (2017-04-07)High performance turbomachinery often experiences severe dynamic loads that produce large amplitude rotor motions. Well-engineered squeeze film dampers (SFDs) provide adequate damping to ameliorate rotor vibrations and to ...
-
(2017-07-28)The use of precast bridge substructures provides the benefits of rapid construction, reduction of traffic disruption, increased worker safety, and increased controlled conditions within the precast plants. The Texas ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)Based on the status quo that conventional energy sources are more and more reduced and environmental pollution is increasingly serious, this paper presents a new model system of conserving energy and environmental protection, ...
-
(Mary Kay O'Connor Process Safety Center; Texas &M University. Libraries, 2018)Comparative tests between pure water curtain and water curtain which contains three CH3COOH, C6H807, C4H6O5 organic acids and surfactants were carried out in view of the release of ammonia in confined space. The results ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)Gas bearings enable successful applications in high speed oil-free microturbomachinery. This thesis presents analysis and experiments of the dynamic performance of a rotor supported on Rayleigh step gas bearings. Comprehensive ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2002)The present investigation advances the analysis and experimental validation of simple gas bearing configurations with static and dynamic force characteristics desirable in high-speed turbomachinery. Comprehensive experiments ...

(2017-06-17)This paper presents the design, development and construction process of an experimental rotating room to study the performance of complex fenestration systems (CFS). The room, of 600 ft2 represents a workspace of 20 ft ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1997)Centrifugal compressors are increasingly required to operate in higher pressure, higher speed, and large fluid density. In these conditions, compressors are susceptible to rotordynamic instabilities. To avoid this situation, ...
